int
resource_int_value(const char *name, int unit, const char *resname, int *result);

int
resource_long_value(const char *name, int unit, const char *resname, long *result);

int
resource_string_value(const char *name, int unit, const char *resname, const char **result);

These functions fetch a value from the “hints” mechanism.

The functions take the following arguments:

name

The name of the device to get the resource value from.

unit

The unit number of the device. -1 is special and is used for wildcard entries.

resname

The resource name.

result

A pointer to memory in which to store the resource value.

If successful, the functions return 0. Otherwise, a non-zero error code is returned.

The functions will fail if:

[ENOENT]

The resource could not be found.

[EFTYPE]

Inappropriate resource type.

device(9), driver(9)
